1. Notes over the present perfect & pluperfect: What are they? How are they formed? How do they translate to English? - This is review from what we did on Monday.

2. Drill/practice of the presente perfecto y el pluscuamperfecto. Using www.comjuguemos.com students took turns rotating to the computer, while the rest wrote out the answers from the practice quiz. Once everyone had a turn at the presente perfecto I wrote in the answers, the students gave, for practicing the pluscuamperfecto. Students wrote in the English for their Spanish conjugations, and I collected the paper. (30 presente perfectos, 15 pluscuamperfectos)

3. We reviewed the answers for the homework,WAVA 6, and I reviewed some basic grammatical errors many students made.

4. We "forged ahead" with the artículo - we should finish it tomorrow.
